Benefits of technology

[0256]Partial or complete suppression of the mitochondrial disease can result in a lessening of the severity of one or more of the symptoms that the subject would otherwise experience. For example, partial suppression of MELAS could result in reduction in the number of stroke-like or seizure episodes suffered.

Problems solved by technology

Lack of oxygen prevents aerobic respiration and will result in eventual death of almost all aerobic organisms; a few organisms, such as yeast, are able to survive using either aerobic or anaerobic respiration.
If a threshold proportion of mitochondria in the cell is defective, and if a threshold proportion of such cells within a tissue have defective mitochondria, symptoms of tissue or organ dysfunction can result.
Other severe complications, including neurological symptoms, are often present, and elevated levels of lactic acid in the blood occur.
Very few treatments are available for patients suffering from these diseases.
